One of Kylie’s finest moments
 Still crazy her biggest album still doesn’t have a proper vinyl release - the fact the Sainsbury’s and Record Crate editions still sell for £150+ weekly it shows there is obviously a demand for it!

I think this is my favourite Kylie album! I know what is to come after this and I can't see any of that overtaking this as my ultimate favourite~
01. In Your Eyes 02. Fragile 03. Love at First Sight 04. Can't Get You Out of My Head 05. Love Affair 06. Come Into My World 07. Fever 08. Dancefloor 09. More More More 10. Burning Up 11. Your Love 12. Give It to Me It's a heavenly album, filled to the brim with incredible songs. 'In Your Eyes' is my favourite here and would rank in my top 5 all-time singles from her too (challenging for #1 there). And then 'Fragile' is by FAR my favourite album track by her! Away from those, we have iconic other singles, the glorious chorus of Love Affair, and pretty much everything is amazing. The bottom 4 songs are fun/cute but ultimately inessential, whereas everything from 8 upwards is near life-changing. A true celebratory album that is pure bliss from start to end! Album ranking 01. Fever 02. Kylie Minogue 03. Rhythm of Love 04. Light Years 05. Impossible Princess 06. Kylie 07. Enjoy Yourself 07. Let's Get To It |

Fragile is such a great song and often overlooked.

Many posters have shown affection for Fragile for a while now.

I always forget how much I love 'Fragile' until I listen to it, it's a real beauty of a song.
I really wish beyond wish that 'Tightrope' was on this album in place of 'Give It To Me', then it would flow so perfectly and be absolute 100%. That sticks out like a sore thumb. |

'In Your Eyes' is my favourite Kylie single and it's in great company on this album. 'Give It To Me' and 'Dancefloor' are the only ones I don't love but I still enjoy them (would have to replace 'Give It To Me' with 'Tightrope' though if there was only room for 12 tracks - that is just essential!). The other B-sides are great too: 'Boy', 'Baby', 'Good Like That' to name a few. This album really set the tone for a lot of pop music in the years that followed and its impact is still being felt nearly 20 years on, what with critics and fans picking up similarities in Dua Lipa's latest album. |

I’ve gradually gone through all Kylie’s 10’s albums, and I’m starting the naughtiest with Fever. WOW
The influence on dance pop is so clear to see, it’s a really fresh sounding record. This is literally gay heaven.01. Love At First Sight 02. In Your Eyes 03. Can’t Get You Out Of My Head 04. Your Love (a shame it doesn’t get much love, it lays things back down a notch and is so smooth) 05. Love Affair 06. Burning Up 07. Fever 08. Come Into My World 09. Fragile 10. Give It To Me 11. On The Dancefloor 12. More More More ‘More More More’ stood out behind the rest, but even that was a fun listen. Perfection  Can’t wait for Body Language and X, then I’ll take a week to acquaint myself properly with all these albums.

I've always loved "More More More"
and thought it deserved way more shine. That's the thing with Fever, though: the singles were so MAMMOTH, era-defining, and influential, that the album tracks and B-sides were a bit overshadowed.I really love that, to my ears, "More More More" slots in really well with the DISCO tracks. I'd also love a mashup with Andrea True Connection's "More More More". |

I completely agree, with it not being on any album properly I always forget about 'Tightrope'  Although, it's always a pleasant surprise when I remember it exists each time. |

After enjoying ‘Disco’ so much I’ve been listening to ‘Fever’ tonight - it really is her best album since then and dance/pop really is what Kylie does best.
I adore ‘Golden’ and it’s also way up there as one of my favourites and also really consistent and strong but due to it being so different from Disco I can’t compare it against that. |

I still love this album. My favourites still are:
1. Tightrope 2. CIMW single version (with the breathier vocals) 3. LAFS 4. Fragile 5. Love Affair Ironically, CGYOOMH is the Kylie single I least listen to, in the Parlo era

A great summary of 'Fever' from an American channel (I recommend adjusting the video speed to 1.25 though haha):

Fever is getting another vinyl release!
https://www.nationalalbumday.co.uk/product/...ersary-edition/ On October 1st, Kylie Minogue celebrates the 20th anniversary of her chart-topping, dance-pop classic, Fever. The album was a global smash, picking up number 1s in places across the UK, Australia, Germany, Ireland as well as multiple top 10 finishes elsewhere. It featured massive singles such as Love At First Sight, In Your Eyes and one of the singles of the 00s, Can’t Get You Out Of My Head; which peaked at number one across 40 countries, including every European country apart from Finland. To celebrate 20 years of the pop classic, Fever will be released on white vinyl with a special 300gsm gloss print inserted in the gatefold. ~~~ I guess this’ll make the original white vinyl a lot less valuable now? |

I welcome Fever getting another vinyl release to add sales but would have preferred Impossible Princess to get its debut vinyl release and I believe many fans may feel the same.
